CC6 Migration to CC7 (new server) 1

[paterson]

Hello everyone,

I am in the middle of migrating a CC6 from one platform to a CC7 on another platform.

The trouble I am having is with the CCMS 6.0 database. I have used the migration tool to create a new database. I have placed the new database on a network drive. During the install of CCMS 7.0, it asks for the migration file location. I browse to the location on the network drive and then fill in the fields that asks for a domain\username\password. I click NEXT and the install app checks that the username\password is valid (if it is not valid, the app tells me). Then I continue with the install.

The install fails with the database migration. The log file says that it could not map the network drive to the file. Even though I browsed to it and it validated username\password during the install process.

Anyone have any ideas?

I may be way off base, as i usually am, but is the network drive setup with a user account or "everyone"? Maybe the symposium install is using a different user to access the network drive?

Thanks for responding Pir8Radio,

I solved the issue late on Friday. I could map to the network share and my domain account worked fine. The problem was using the BROWSE button on the install application. I had to type out \\servername\sharename\folder\folder\folder where the migrated data was, rather than use the browse button to the same location.
